A new update for AutoWear is out in beta! (the update should take a bit to roll out to everyone, but you can get the APKs right away here:

• Phone APK
• Watch APK (you have to install it directly on the watch via ADB)

)

A very anticipated feature has finally made its way into AutoWear: Tiles!

You know, those screens on the right of your watch face... You can now have customizable AutoWear buttons right there!

Check out the full demo here:

For now, there's only 1 type of Tile: Buttons.

The Buttons Tile allows you to create a list of customizable buttons that send out commands when you tap them. You can also have a label above, and another below the buttons. Finally you can add a smaller independent button at the bottom of the screen.

You can have 2 different AutoWear Button Tiles setup at the same time, meaning that you can have 2 independent screens that you can swipe to with different buttons.

Of course that you can automate changing the button setup at any time with Tasker, so you could have a different Tile when at home, when at work, etc.

I thought this would be a logical first type of Tile to add, but the system is pretty flexible, so I could add more types of Tiles! Let me know if you have any cool ideas for a Tile screen that would be cool to have it be customizable like this.

Enjoy and let me know how it works! 😎

This has been requested for quite some time, and while I was going through my 1000+ emails someone requested it again, so I decided to put out a little update to the app while I was at it.

So now you can send commands for when you rotate the bezel in any of the AutoWear screens!

When configuring a screen simply set the commands in Advanced > Rotary Command Down or Rotary Command Up!

Now I need to update the app again so that complications start working again on OneUI 5... But because of that little fix, I'll need to update a lot of the internals in AutoWear, which is giving me a lot more work than expected.

The good news is, because of these internal changes I'll be able to much easier create new types of screens if requested.

I've revamped the List screen in the meantime with these changes, so it'll look a lot different now!. Here's an example: (colors are configurable)

I'll release the new update sometime soon!

Enjoy!

Is it possible for the app remove permissions as soon as the app is closed and then grant permissions back on when app is used/opened. I am new to Tasker and want to know if this can be done?

When using the flash action, there's an option to start a task when tapping on the flashed text. If you start a task using the flash action from the UI, the value of %caller1 is ui. If a task is started by tapping the flashed text, shouldn't the value of %caller1 be something else in the second task?

I don't see any reference to this situation in the user guide, so I'm not sure what that something else would be, but shouldn't there be a way of identifying that a task was started via tapping on flashed text?

Here's an example of a task that starts itself by tapping on flashed text.

Task: Caller Not Changing
Settings: Run Both Together

A1: Flash [
     Text: %caller1
     %caller2
     Long: On
     Tasker Layout: On
     Task: Caller Not Changing
     Continue Task Immediately: On
     Dismiss On Click: On ]

Am I missing something?

I ran into a recent annoying problem where a connected device is no longer keeping my phone unlocked. Looking it up, it seems that a recent update to Google Play services as unintentionally removed this capability from at least some phones. I attempted to fix this with Tasker by making a state dependent on connected Bluetooth devices, and then toggling the keyguard.

But even with keyguard disabled, every single time I am forced to put my pin in. It isn't actually disabling the screen lock. Any idea what might be going wrong? Is there maybe a shell command that I could use instead that anyone is aware of?

Hi guys - I'm a new user, been using some of the cloud routines and really enjoying them, but struggling to figure out the syntax to accomplish a certain task.

I'm a therapist and my appointments run for 50 minutes of every hour. So, I want a vibration pulse (ideally something I can customize to be as unobtrusive as possible) at 8:50, 9:50, etc certain days of the week to let me know the session needs to wrap up without having an alarm or being a clockwatcher.

I know I can do this with alarms but since I'm using Tasker and I like it I'd like to learn how to do this. Any help?

So I had this update rudely thrust upon me. Never had auto updates on, but just checking if there was one, decided to ignore my "Install Later" requests and installed overnight, as I were sleeping, with watch on wrist, falling asleep with 32%. FU Samsung.

Anyway, rant over.

BT and WiFi Debugging

ADB will be like it is on newer Android. You need to first pair to a random port, then connect to a different one each WiFi. You can however start ADB tcpip like you can, as to keep an ADB service running always. This will allow AutoWear to continue to work. But, days are gone now where AutoWear could grant itself it's permissions via BT debugging, which used to open port 7272, even on WiFi.

Port 7272 is now closed on BT debugging. I totally get why they did this, actually surprised it took them this long. So here it is.

Termux can ADB pair to watch, adb tcpip 7272 (or 5555 if you wish) and no WiFi needed. Just use said port in AutoWear.

edit: You don't need to pair when you do this, just adb connect watch.ip.add.ress:port and grant always.

Complications

Just set them all back up on your face(s). Watchmaker, f.e. lost steps, distance and calories until setting them back. Same for AutoWear based ones.

Will update

As more fan is smothered, or not.

Hi,

I just read that killing apps on Android 14 from another app is not possible anymore:

Will Tasker loose that ability or will there be a workaround?

After being away for a while I'm now back! :)

Now I have a LOT of catching up to do regarding replying to user requests, so please give me about 2 weeks or so to get up to speed.

I hope I can get through all of these quickly so I can get back to make Tasker/AutoApps better! 😁

Hope everything was OK while I was gone!

Hi everyone, I'm happy to share with you a project I've been working on for a long time, the Tasker budget tracker!

I wasn't quite satisfied with any budget tracking app, so I decided to create one that will have all of these features:

• Completely custom categories
• Notes each transaction (where needed)
• Transactions in different currencies
• Monthly and yearly data in a sheet format, with average monty amounts for each category (and a few more insights)
• Ability to check the data from any device

The project uses Tasker, Autotools and Autosheets to track your income/expenses in a Google sheet. Everything is created dynamically from scratch, so you can use the task as-is, or modify it according to your preferences. Here is the tutorial that shows how it works and how to set it up.

Here is the project itself on Taskernet.

Enjoy! :)

I recently updated Tasker from an older version I think it was 6.1.4, so not too old. Tasker used to set %errmsg to a description of what happened if the Dialog actions did not return with some text, like "No input provided" or "Cancelled". In the most recent version of Tasker this action does not set these error variables like before. Any hints on what I could do?

Yes I noticed the obvious in the Userguide where it states %errmsg is "currently never set by Tasker" but I don't remember if it's always been this way, or actually an update. All I know is the various Dialog actions won't error out anymore.

(Searching the web did not give relevant results; I don't know where to start with the logs)

Hi,

I've done a lot of search online and could only find outdated threads on this topic, so I am opening this thread to identify a solution that applies to the current situation. What I found out was that old solutions no longer work because Android now opens captive portal page in its UI vs browser. My workplace and gym both use captive portal with a simple click to agree (workplace one has to scroll several pages to get to the button however). If anyone has a tasker automation solution for captive portal WiFi login, please share. Thank you.

Does anyone else have problems running a profile that is going to use AutoLocation at some point, which Android Auto projection?

I noticed that since I created the profile in Tasker with "Stopping Monitor Location, first address true" etc, Android Auto GPS location is a bit off and lags and starts missing while blocks or road in the end. It may be fixed by restarting Android Auto and car, but this isn't useful.

Anyone else?

There's an easy way to enable ADB wifi permission, by installing tasker permissions on your windows PC, connecting your phone to the pc and granting the permission that way as mentioned here

But does this need to be re-granted every time you restart the phone, or does ADB wifi permission stay granted forever?

Good Morning,

I've been using PowerAmp Pro for many years now, and I'm finding the Intents kind of lacking in options. I can't play a single file or playlist, as soon as it is done running what I requested it continues playing other files or lists. If there is a scripting way to stop this I don't know of it, I have to use Kill App with ADB WiFi enabled to stop the unwanted play.

Have any players come out in the last few years with more config options and Intents?

Thanks for reading,

Logan

Have a tasker task that uses autoinput to turn on the screen, then unlock it. Sometimes it works, sometimes it fails with "Screen can't be unlocked in this state." I have a Samsung with smart lock set, and the failures occur even where the phone should be unlocked by smart lock. The error message is pretty useless. How can I figure out what "this state" is? Looking in the tasker log doesn't help: I know what task is being executed, just not why Auto Input can't unlock the screen. Is there ANY debug information available from Auto Input?

I'm following this guide:

I followed it to the letter. When I launch the widget, however, it gives me an error that there is no task for Clear Chat, which is true. It is calling for a Clear Chat task that doesn't exist. I turn off that variable, but then I get the same thing for the "Send Chat" task.

With u/joaomgcd on vacation, it has been a bit slow in Tasker-land. So I thought I would post this update.

MapTasker is a program that runs on your (OS X) Mac, reading your backup xml file and displaying your entire or partial Tasker setup in a viewable format...in your default browser.

MapTasker helps visualize and understand your Tasker projects, profiles, tasks and scenes. Version 2.3 comes with new features to enhance the user experience:

• New '-font' runtime option to select a monospace font for maps.
• New '-outline' option displays configuration outline at end of output.
• New '-runtime' option displays all runtime arguments and settings at beginning of map.
• GUI updated with the above new features and a 'Just Display Everything' checkbox.
• Yeah, there is even an easter egg.

Other features include many runtime options to tailor the output map just the way you want it. It will even (optionally) grab your backup.xml file from your Android device via Wifi (see README or details).

To install: pip install maptasker

To run from the GUI: maptasker -g

For a list of all changes, refer to the full change log.

Program details can be found here.

I have updated a Galaxy Watch 4 to Wear OS 4 (One UI 4.0). I have seen two problems with AUTOWEAR. First, complications do not update with new data when Tasker sends new data to the complication. The data appears when the watchface first loads but does not update thereafter.

Secondly, if you edit a complication in AUTOWEAR on the phone, when you close and the phone attempts to update the complication on the watch it sits on the "Please Wait, Setting Complication on Watch." This is followed by "ERROR, Couldn't update complication. Maker sure your watch is connected." The watch is connected and operating correctly.

I suspect that AUTOWEAR needs an update to support Wear OS 4.

As an additional note, it seems it is only possible to allow the overlay permission is direct use of ADB. There is no system way to do so and scripts don't seem to work. I was successful in enabling it using ADB, but could not enable the WRITE_SETTINGS permission.

Thank you so much for all the work on AUTOWEAR - it really is incredibly valuable.

I'm looking for a way to hide or destroy an Overlay, Blocking scene when the user taps outside its borders, regardless of what is being tapped. Possible?
